Following a lifelong love of maths and science, I graduated with a degree in Physics from the University of Tel-Aviv in 1979. But, after realizing that I wanted more from life than working in a lab, I retrained as a psychologist at The University of North Texas in Denton, and soon began working in schools, correctional facilities, psychiatric wards, and in private practice seeing children with attention issues.
A pivotal moment in my practice came when a colleague claimed that one can work productively with children who suffer from ADHD, without using medication. Though I was initially extremely sceptical, I decided to travel to Sydney to learn more about neurofeedback, and what I saw changed the trajectory of my career. I saw for myself that neurofeedback was achieving profound, long-lasting results without the need for medication and I was excited.
Well placed to apply my analytical mind in a field that was both technological, scientific and therapeutic, I began a 20-year career as a neurofeedback practitioner and educator, helping thousands of clients and mentoring hundreds of clinicians across the world. I’ve studied with many of the world-leading experts in neurofeedback and QEEG/EEG analysis, and have now become a recognised leader in the industry myself.
Now, my aim is to pull back the curtain and share the science of neurofeedback in a truly accessible way, to ensure that the kind of healthy scepticism I, myself, had 20 years ago, doesn’t prevent any prospective client from experiencing the truly transformative results that neurofeedback can offer.
